A VERY early friday morning run!!!

Yes, it's 4am and I'm just now going to bed! I've been up for 18 1/2 hours!! But what did I decide to do when I got home from work at 3am? I decided that I should get my friday run in NOW in the cool darkness instead of at 10am when it would be sunny and hot! So Velcro and I headed out to pound the pavements! And now we have run! It was a wonderful run! It wasn't fast-I'm tired..it has been a bit of a long day! But what a difference temperature and darkness makes to me and my running! I could have kept running! But I realized I needed to get some sleep!! So I kept it to my normal work day distance!



Wow! I'm amazed how good that run felt-especially after working! Normally I don't like running after a long day of working but tonight was different! It felt good!



Now I'm in bed with a tiny glass of wine ready to crash! I don't have to run in the sun!! I'm so happy!!



RUN: 3.16 miles with Velcro at 3:15am having been up for 18 1/2 hours....... (41:32)



Good night!

Now that you've managed a great EARLY morning run, I hope you had a really good sleep! :)

I think I would have done the same thing. Did Velcro wonder what the heck was going on? LOL

I understand not wanting to run in the sun, believe me. It makes just feel tired thinking about it. What's funny is that usually I am running usually an hour or so after you went to bed! So glad it felt good, just stay safe when running in the middle of the night. :-)

Wow! Great run! I always prefer late night runs to hot, sunny runs any day! Cute dog :)

I think I might be scared to run at 3 AM. You're luck you have Velcro to keep you company and protect you!

I love the night goggles look Velcro is sporting!

Good job on your run!
